Title: Pistons for AAZ - .020 over
Post by: Gizmoman on September 18, 2012, 09:03:58 pm

Having a tough time finding pistons (one size over stock). I've decided not to go Proth and ran across these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/VW-AUDI-1-9TD-TD-diesel-0-50-mm-ENGINE-Pistons-Rings-80-01-mm-AAZ-ABL-ADE-/270918093212?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f13fa099c (http://www.ebay.com/itm/VW-AUDI-1-9TD-TD-diesel-0-50-mm-ENGINE-Pistons-Rings-80-01-mm-AAZ-ABL-ADE-/270918093212?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f13fa099c)

Any comments on "Lithuanian" pistons ? (TG for spell-check!)


Here's another choice

Thanks for any feedback.

Yeah, I talked to him as we discussed my pump which he has finished - yea!

No luck on the pistons though, only the largest available and I don't want to take this out all the way.
